With its design taken from an antique washstand, it will truly last the test of time. And of course, when we say bespoke – we mean it!  Our traditional washstands and vanity units can be created with an array of stunning marble or stone options, including Arabescato, Portoro, Nero Granito, and Verde marble. And a choice of metal frames including copper, nickel, brass, and chrome, all manufactured and finished to order in our Kent Workshops.

Also made in Kent from high-quality sustainable timbers, our vanity units come in several wood stains and a range of painted finishes. These can also be finished in a colour of your choice.

Nero Granito – a rich black granite with white veins running throughout.

Verde Marble – this marble is luxury raised to its highest level. Extravagant and sumptuous this marble is guaranteed to make a statement.

FAQs

Some of our traditional washstands and vanity units can be customised to your own specification. Please call or contact one of our design consultants, who will be happy to talk through your ideas.

Our ceramic under-mounted basins come as standard, but we can offer metal basins in nickel, copper and brass as an alternative.

Yes indeed you can. We now supply our Pyrford range with hammered metal shelves in a range of finishes.

Generally the marble is the heaviest part so make sure there are enough people available to carry safely – especially the double versions.

This can certainly be done. But it is best to highlight this at the time of ordering so we can ensure that the pieces are cut from the same slab.

Items like towels and soaps can be stored on either our metal or marble shelves. Alternatively if you do not wish these items to be seen I would suggest one of our Vanity Units.
